I have heard that January is the month for depression & I guess it found me. Great way to start out the new year uh? Actually it all seemed to tumble down in Dec. During Christmas shopping about an hour away from home, I had a very very low tire, almost completely flat. Got air in it and it was good still after 3 days, but friends suggested I better have it checked out. So I went to our local Carquest & after waiting for over an hour, they showed me that one tire was completely bald, and the other 3 were just about to go completely out. Not knowing anything about tires etc, I think they probably pulled a fast one on me, but I agreed to get the 4 new tires. Only because he lets me make monthly payments. So just when I almost had all my bills caught up, here comes another one. So is life, right? And then there’s that problem with the bank. I ended up having to pay off the overcharges, and open a completely different account because the Itunes thing kept running it through which caused me 35 every day. Anyways, thats taken care of, thank goodness. So things were going ok money wise, but the weather.. well .. as I have said so many times… I HATE WINTER. I just know I could NEVER make it up north. Anything below 65 is cold to me lol Last week we had about 3 days of dark, gloomy days with very high winds and freezing. I would like to hibernate from Nov-Feb 14 lol Turtles only like warm places lol
But a few days ago I received a text message that turned my smile upside down like this :(
For months I have been taking my little dog with me when I go to my part-time job watching the girls at night. No problems, in fact he is sorta like a Mascot for them. Well, one of the other workers said that there was a pee spot on the bed. I can’t say that Cooper didn’t do it cuz he probably did, but I didn’t notice it, or else I would have washed it. Instead she took pictures and sent them to the supervisor. So the text said that I would no longer be allowed to take my dog with me over there. Unless you treat your pets like one of your family, you won’t understand my feelings. I was crushed. He LOVES going over there & the girls love him. He knows every Wed night when its time for us to go & he starts turning in circles and jumping around. Now I am going to have to leave him here & I’m so afraid that he is not going to understand why all of a sudden I’m leaving him behind. Plus I worry cuz when I am gone too many hours he starts to howl like a wolf & the neighbors have complained before. So I don’t know what I’m going to do. I don’t know anyone that could come over here and stay all night with him. If it gets too bad, I’ll just have to look for a different job. I left him before when I worked during the day & he cried too, but then most ppl are busy or away so didn’t notice like they will at night.
I made some chili the other day & got it too spicy so now my tummy is killing me. I just can’t eat spicy stuff anymore :(
Well, I’ll write again in a few days with update about the job. Take care & stay warm.
Hugs Turtle~

That is sad that you can't take your dog now. Too bad the family can't put in a special request for him to come with you! I get the pleasure of getting 4 new tires too. Going to check when I go into the city next Tuesday.
